Following Kinshiki's 'Giant Tachi Sweep', after a tremor that shook the earth and mountains, the messy battlefield gradually returned to calm.
Urashiki and Kinshiki floated in the air, looking down at the people of the research institute below.
Urashiki, carrying the fishing rod, chuckled: "These people should be Isshiki's subordinates!"
"En!"
Kinshiki nodded in a muffled voice.
After the exchange just now, they already had a general understanding of the strength of these people below. Although they considered themselves noble Otsutsuki, they had to admit that the people of the research institute were outstanding among lowly creatures.
Therefore, the two of them were certain that these people were all subordinates of Isshiki Otsutsuki.
In their cognition, only lowly natives who defected to the Otsutsuki could possibly possess such formidable strength.
Urashiki continued: "After wiping out these people, Isshiki shouldn't have many trump cards left!"
"Kill!"
Kinshiki heavily spat out a word.
Whether it was Urashiki or Kinshiki, both were Otsutsuki who had plundered several planets. So they subconsciously compared the shinobi world with those planets, feeling that having already dealt with Toneri Otsutsuki on the moon, and now wiping out these people from the research institute, Isshiki Otsutsuki shouldn't have any cards left to play.
Behind the cliff wall.
Amado and Tsunade's faces were ashen, and even Orochimaru, who was previously full of playful banter, slightly narrowed his eyes at this moment.
The appearance of two mysterious Otsutsuki not only completely disrupted the research institute's scientific research plan but even threatened everyone's lives. Especially seeing the wounded everywhere, the few high-level members of the research institute were naturally shocked and angry.
Amado glanced at Orochimaru and questioned sternly: "If you continue to sit back and watch those two Otsutsuki slaughter our people, aren't you afraid Leader will sanction you?"
Orochimaru smiled: "You are more important than others. As long as I can bring you back alive, he won't blame me!"
Amado's expression froze.
Orochimaru retracted the smile on his face and said in a deep voice: "You think I don't want to act? These two Otsutsuki are not simple. Relying on me alone, there is simply no chance of winning!"
Having undergone the ritual, he indeed possessed 'Six Paths Level' combat power. But firstly, he was still in the adaptation period, and his control over his power had not reached the point of doing as he pleased. Secondly, he knew nothing about the opponent's intelligence.
Acting recklessly in this situation would very likely result in the same fate as Hiruko. How shrewd was Orochimaru; how could he let himself be in such a passive position.
Tsunade naturally understood Orochimaru and said: "You're not thinking of waiting for reinforcements to arrive, are you?"
Orochimaru nodded slightly: "Of course, I haven't been arrogant enough to think I can solve two Otsutsuki!"
Looking at Urashiki and Kinshiki talking in the air, Amado said: "They have absolutely no intention of negotiating with us; they could attack us at any time!"
"Then we can only flee!" Pausing for a moment, Orochimaru said coldly: "There are quite a few wounded here, they should be able to distract them."
He had been observing and analyzing. Urashiki and Kinshiki were far from strong enough to make him despair, but when the sky falls, there's a taller person to hold it up. Shinji has a bunch of strong subordinates, and the research institute also has the Eida and Daemon siblings. He wouldn't take such a risk for Shinji.
Just then, Urashiki in the air noticed Orochimaru and the others: "Eh!"
Kinshiki on the side looked in the direction of the sound, and his gaze quickly locked onto Orochimaru as well.
Just now, because of Hiruko's ritual, the entire area near the ritual site was enveloped by violent chakra, affecting their perception.
...
Now that Hiruko had fallen to the bottom of the cliff, his life or death unknown, and the ritual site was also destroyed by Kinshiki's 'Giant Tachi Sweep', causing the chakra to dissipate, the two immediately noticed Orochimaru who similarly possessed Shibai Otsutsuki's aura.
Moreover, compared to Hiruko whose aura was messy and violent before, the aura on Orochimaru was undoubtedly much more stable. This indicated that Orochimaru was stronger and very likely one of Isshiki Otsutsuki's most capable subordinates, possibly even knowing Isshiki Otsutsuki's whereabouts.
"Interesting!"
With a chuckle, Urashiki immediately pounced towards Orochimaru.
Worried that Orochimaru would fall into Urashiki's hands, Kinshiki immediately urged his chakra, activating 'Ama-no-Habaya', materializing chakra weapons behind him, and shooting them towards Orochimaru and the others on the ground with whistling sounds breaking through the air.
Boom boom boom...
The chakra weapons instantly shattered the mountain peak where Orochimaru and the others were, turning the entire peak into a pile of rubble.
Whoosh!
Carrying one in each hand, Orochimaru dashed out of the dust with Amado and Tsunade, looking somewhat miserable.
He didn't expect Urashiki and Kinshiki to attack without a word, and with such fierce attacks!
Seeing Orochimaru dodge his 'Ama-no-Habaya', Kinshiki, suspended in the air, waved his hand. The chakra blades, spears, swords, and halberds that flew out just now flew back to his side one after another. Then, holding an axe in one hand and a sword in the other, he pounced towards Orochimaru again.
"Damn it!"
Orochimaru cursed secretly.
If it were just him alone, escaping wouldn't be difficult, but now he still needed to cover Tsunade and Amado, so the situation was bad. Especially Amado, who was just an ordinary person. Even with some scientific ninja tool protection, it was unclear how useful they would be when facing enemies like the Otsutsuki.
But just as the chakra axe in Kinshiki's hand was about to strike Orochimaru and the others, suddenly a figure sprang out, kicking Kinshiki flying with one kick.
Immediately after, another figure flew over, arms crossed, saying coldly: "Amado, I saved your life!"
Amado shouted: "Daemon, Eida, don't be careless, they are very likely Otsutsuki descended from the starry sky!"
Undoubtedly, the one who kicked Kinshiki flying just now was Daemon, and the one flying in the air was Eida. The two could fly and had very strong mobility, so they arrived at the battlefield one step ahead of Yakumo and Haku.
Whoosh whoosh...
Soon, accompanied by the sound of breaking wind, Yakumo and Haku, dressed in Akatsuki outfits, also landed on the battlefield.
Urashiki laughed: "Still have reinforcements, tsk tsk, seems Isshiki hasn't been idle!"
Kinshiki, kicked flying by Daemon, climbed up from the ground, looking unkindly at Daemon.
"Two Otsutsuki..." Yakumo's expression turned stern, then she said to everyone present: "Eida, Daemon, Orochimaru, I don't care what methods you use, you cannot let them escape!"
"Hmph!"
Eida snorted lightly but didn't refute, because she knew Yakumo represented Shinji at this moment!
Orochimaru smiled.
Eida and Daemon arrived, plus 'C' and 'D' came; he must obey orders, otherwise Shinji would definitely not spare him!
Urashiki laughed loudly: "Cannot let us escape? Heh, this is the funniest joke I've heard recently!"
Yakumo said coldly: "Laugh quickly, you soon won't be able to laugh!"
